She began Thursday last, when,
about S:45 A. M, little girl came to
the door and said, "Matchiz ?" she
replied in a gentle voice:
"No, child thank YOU"
At 9:10 the bell rang, and, going
to the door, she was confronted by a
peach pirate, who said:
"Fine ripe peaches, lady; 80 cents

with that inquiring look of curiosity
which, in the country, so plainly
speaks of the scarcity of strangers.

"Roan, with white fetlocks."

"About ten years."
"Good work nag, reckon"

Very Discouraging.

One OF the Trials with which teach
ers in the rural districts have to con-
tend is the manner in which certain
injudicious parents encourage or "up-
hold" their children in making mis-
chief A teacher gives the following
account of his experience with an un-
ruly pupil and his unwise mother: |:
"The boy was said to be the smartest
in the district, and he and his mother
had no doubt as to the correctness OF
this statement. They were also in
clined to think that the boys vaunted
smartness placed him beyond the pale
of the ordinary rules of the school,
and that he should have the privilege
of doing as he pleased.
He was, therefore, very much sur
prised and an indignant boy when !
punished him severely one day for
the most uncalled-for and glaring vi
.olation of the rules of the school. At
recess he ran home, and few min
utes later returned with his mother,
who came into the room with flaming
eyes and the stride Of an Amazon.
